Sabrina
Bobo Rondelli Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Smeraldo mare
Come il fondale
A far dispetti
Quelli ancestrali
Che le bambine san bene fare
E Sabrina tra tutte è la migliore
Mamma fammi uscire per favore
Si, l'ho già finita la lezione
E Sabrina fa il giro del cielo
Col Wolkswagen alato e lo stereo
Sparato al massimo
E soltanto i bambini la vedono
E con gli occhi socchiusi la seguono
E la salutano
Sabrina amore
Piccola amica
Stella del cielo
Mio batticuore
Con i capelli
Raggi di sole
Che illuminavi
Col tuo passare
Tutto il cortile
Mamma fammi uscire per favore
Si, l'ho già finita la lezione
E Sabrina fa il giro del cielo
Col Wolkswagen alato e lo stereo
Sparato al massimoE soltanto i bambini la vedono
E con gli occhi socchiusi la seguono
E con lei volano
E soltanto i bambini la vedono
E con gli occhi socchiusi la seguono
E con lei volano
The lyrics of Bobo Rondelli's song "Sabrina" paint a vivid portrait of a character named Sabrina, described as a girl with green eyes resembling the emerald sea, with a mischievous streak inherent in young girls. Sabrina is depicted as the best among all in playing tricks, hinting at a playful and possibly rebellious nature. The imagery of her eyes being likened to the deep sea and her ability to stir up ancestral mischief suggests a powerful and enigmatic presence that draws others to her.
The mention of Sabrina asking her mother to let her go out after finishing her lesson indicates a sense of independence and a desire to explore beyond boundaries. This rebellious spirit is further echoed in the description of Sabrina cruising the sky in a winged Volkswagen with the music blaring. The imagery of children being the only ones able to see and follow Sabrina with eyes half-closed adds a mystical element to her character, as if she embodies a childhood fantasy or dreamlike figure.
"Sabrina, love, little friend, star of the sky, my heartbeat" - these lyrics convey a sense of admiration and affection for Sabrina, portraying her as a radiant presence who brightens up the surroundings with her presence. The imagery of her hair glowing like sunbeams that light up the entire courtyard paints an ethereal picture of Sabrina as a luminous and captivating figure who stands out in the midst of everyday life.
The repeated refrain of children being the only ones able to see Sabrina, following her with half-closed eyes and flying with her, suggests a bond between Sabrina and the innocence and imagination of childhood. Sabrina is portrayed as a figure of wonder and fascination, a magical being who exists outside the realm of adult perceptions. Overall, the lyrics of "Sabrina" evoke a sense of nostalgia, whimsy, and a yearning for a childlike sense of wonder and possibility in the midst of ordinary life.
